COMMENTARY
Acts 19:19–41 (NSB:NKJV): 19:19 These books were filled with formulas, spells, and astrological forecasts.
The volumes were expensive; fifty thousand pieces of silver would have taken ten laborers twenty years to earn.
Burning the books indicated real repentance on the part of those who had practiced magic.
19:24–27 Silver shrines of Diana refers to small shrines containing a miniature image of the fertility goddess of Ephesus.
Sales of these idols were falling off as people were introduced to the truth of Jesus Christ.
19:29 into the theater: This amphitheater seated 25,000 people.
19:33, 34 The Jews wanted to distance themselves from Paul, so they put Alexander forward to explain that the Jews had nothing to do with Paul.
However, Alexander never got the chance to speak once the crowd discovered he was a Jew.
19:35–41 we are in danger: The riot at Ephesus could have brought the discipline of Rome down upon the city.
The Pax Romana, the peace that the Roman Empire brought to the Mediterranean world, was important to Rome.
Therefore, the empire severely disciplined unruly cities.
The Romans would not tolerate any kind of uprising or rebellion.
Ephesus risked losing its freedom and being ruled directly by the Roman army.
